Across State Lines: Croizet Signs in Belgium

Former Sporting Kansas City midfielder, Yohan Croizet has a new club, and for him it’s an old club as well. It was announced today that Croizet had signed with Oud-Heverlee Lueven in the Belgian second division. Croizet had previously played for OHL from 2014 to 2016. They currently sit fifth in the division’s closing season (like Liga MX, the Belgian second division has an opening and a closing season), though they won the division’s opening season, securing themselves a position in the promotion playoff against the winner of the closing season.

Elsewhere, two Kansas Citians have new clubs for the 2020 season as well. Current Kansas City Comets player, Ray Saari has signed to play with the Oklahoma City Energy for the 2020 USL Championship season. He joins two other Kansas City natives on the roster as Joe Amico and Tucker Stephenson both signed with OKC earlier this offseason. In the NWSL, Shea Groom will be joining third team since FC Kansas City folded and moved to Utah. The Liberty graduate was traded this past week to the Houston Dash where, like Saari, she joins other Kansas City natives as Haley Hanson, Maegan Kelly, CeCe Kizer are all already on the Dash roster. Here’s the rest of this week’s update.
